Report to the Community 2015 T han k you so m uch f or reading the C ityA rch R iver R eport to the C o m m unity ! On October 28, 2015, the St. Louis region and our nation will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the placing of the keystone of the Gateway Arch. This moment symbolized the joining of our rich history with the promise of our future. Some of you may remember that day in 1965. This year, we continue to look to the future. The transformation that is physically connecting our region, the national park, the riverfront and surrounding areas is well underway. Together, we are creating an experience below the Arch as memorable as the Arch itself. In this report, you will read about the progress that has been made on the CityArchRiver project in the last few years. As a community, we have accomplished much in 2014 and 2015. From Luther Ely Smith Square to the riverfront, we are creating a more accessible, sustainable, and vibrant park. In April this year, partners broke ground on the new museum and visitor center beneath the Arch. The southern portion of the riverfront is now open – raised 2.9 feet with a new bicycle path and more. Fifty years ago, St. Louis and the world witnessed history as the Arch was completed. It was the culmination of decades of hard work by many individuals and organizations and the support of an entire community. The grounds around the Arch continued to evolve. Today, we are witnessing history again. One of the largest public-private investments in our region and the largest private investment in a national park since the renovation of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island in the 1980s is becoming a reality in St. Louis. We invite you to be part of the transformation! Sincerely, C I T YA R C H R I V E R D E S I G N G O A L S 1. Create an iconic place for the international icon, the Gateway Arch 2.

Grove President and CEO Jefferson National Parks Association Greg Horn District Engineer, St. Louis Region Missouri Department of Transportation Francis G. Slay Mayor City of St. Louis The CityArchRiver project is a public-private partnership between local, state, and national organizations that share an incredible determination to bring increased vitality to the Gateway Arch, the riverfront, and the St. Louis region. Gateway Arch Museum and Visitor Center Lead Partners: National Park Service, CityArchRiver Foundation, Great Rivers Greenway, Bi-State Development Agency Project Timeline: Spring 2015 – Spring 2017 Project Budget: $169.6 million Contractors: McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. Overview: The construction project includes interior renovations and a 46,000 square foot addition to the existing visitor center and museum located under the Arch. Combined, the project totals over 140,000 square feet of construction and renovation work, including mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and associated site work. The building has been designed with sustainable practices, and project partners will apply for LEED gold certification. Interactive museum exhibits will be installed in the new and renovated space under the Arch. The museum below the Arch opened in 1976 and has had few updates since. New technology, current techniques in exhibit storytelling, and diverse narratives of westward expansion will create a more engaging and educational experience for visitors of all ages. Discussion rooms will be built for student groups. The visitor center and museum will include a new west facing entrance, which provides a direct, physical, visible, and accessible connection from Luther Ely Smith Square, the Old Courthouse, and downtown St. Louis with the Park Over the Highway connection. The Arch was completed in 1965, before many of the accessibility and security requirements of today. The air-conditioned museum lobby will have an efficient and comfortable security queue. Status: CityArchRiver partners - the National Park Service, CityArchRiver Foundation, Great Rivers Greenway, Bi-State Development Agency, and the Jefferson National Park Association - broke ground on the new museum on April 29, 2015. The Gateway Arch will stay open during a majority of construction with the Old Courthouse serving as the temporary visitor and ticketing center. To control capacity, all visitors to the Arch will need to purchase tickets to enter the lobby under the Arch during the project. When the new museum opens in 2017, admission will be free. Imagining the future: Visitors to the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial in downtown St. Louis will have a seamless, welcoming, and accessible park experience from downtown to the Arch. The new park over I-44 will lead to the new museum plaza visible from the steps of the Old Courthouse. Luther Ely Smith Square Landscaping Lead Partner: National Park Service, CityArchRiver Foundation Project Timeline: December 2014 – October 2015 Museum and Visitor Center continued The new museum lobby is designed to move guests through security and to the museum quickly and easily. Before the security queue, a climate-controlled lobby will offer restroom facilities and a wonderful view of the downtown skyline. The new lobby and outdoor plaza will be a comfortable area for visitors to rest and recharge between exploring downtown, the Arch grounds, museum, and riverfront. In the new exhibit space, visitors will learn about St. Louis’ role in national expansion within six interactive story galleries: Colonial St. Louis, Jefferson’s Vision, Manifest Destiny, the Riverfront Era, New Frontiers, and Building the Gateway Arch. On the back eastern wall of the lobby, the Dream Wall will be a 100 ft. wide wall of monitors showing videos of the building of the Gateway Arch. The Dream Wall reminds visitors that the Arch is both a monument to westward expansion and a symbol of American innovation. The Dream Wall can be updated with new themes. St. Louis residents can look forward to revisiting for special events and new displays. Visitors will leave the Arch with a sense of optimism for the future - like that of the pioneers of America’s history. Project Budget $8.4 million Contractor: KCI Construction Overview: A new landscape will extend over I-44 between Chestnut and Market Streets to join the Arch grounds with downtown and form a physical connection between the city of St. Louis and its most famous landmark. Status: The Park Over the Highway bridge deck is now complete. Crews are installing planting beds, and landscaping will begin soon. Crews have buried two cisterns (65,000 gallons combined capacity) to collect and filter storm water for the park’s irrigation system. This is one of many sustainability projects taking place on the grounds. Throughout 2015, grading and landscaping will unite Luther Ely Smith Square with the Park Over the Highway and the Arch grounds. Imagining the future: Looking east, from present day Memorial Dr. and Market St., visitors will see the new entrance to the Gateway Arch museum and visitor center. Without a single stair step or curb, visitors will be able to move from Fourth St. to the riverfront. Trees, landscaping, and pathways will create an inviting park atmosphere. Luther Ely Smith Square and the Park Over the Highway will bring the Gateway Arch grounds into downtown St. Louis, weaving the Arch into the fabric of the city. Park Over the Highway Structure and Roadway Improvements Lead Partner: Missouri Department of Transportation Project Timeline: August 2013 – July 2015 Project Budget: $38.5 million Contractor: KCI Construction Overview: As part of the Park Over the Highway project, MoDOT completed roadway improvements including removing, replacing, and widening the Walnut St. bridge with more sidewalk space, reworking ramps between Memorial Dr. and I-44, adjusting traffic flow on Memorial Dr. around the Arch grounds and Luther Ely Smith Square, building the Park Over the Highway structure, and creating accessible curb cuts on downtown sidewalks. The project includes funding from private, state, and federal sources including a TIGER grant from the U. S. Department of Transportation. Status: Construction continues on roadway improvements along I-44 at the depressed section around the Park Over the Highway project and adjacent streets. Structural work for the Park Over the Highway is complete. Crews have sealed the road deck and have poured concrete planters. New street lights and curb cuts have been installed near the Arch grounds. Pine St. has been converted into a pedestrian and bicycle bridge and will open when the CityArchRiver project is complete. Imagining the future: The MoDOT roadway improvements facilitate all modes of transportation. Instead of crossing six lanes of traffic including a sunken highway, visitors will be able to travel easily by foot or bike. For motorists, downtown streets and intersections are being reconfigured to enhance traffic flow and provide new entrances to downtown St. Louis and the Arch grounds. Central Riverfront Lead Partner: Great Rivers Greenway Project Timeline: November 2013 – December 2015 Project Budget: $33 million Contractors: BSI Constructors, Inc. Overview: Leonor K. Sullivan Blvd. runs along the Mississippi River for 1.5 miles from Chouteau Ave. on the south to Biddle St. on the north. The roadway is being elevated 2.9 ft., which will take back a majority of days lost to high water occurrences during tourist season. The riverfront will be more enjoyable and accessible than ever before with new lighting, security, green space, and overlooks. Two dedicated paths, one for pedestrians and cyclists, will ensure that everyone has options for exploring. Leonor K. Sullivan Blvd. will remain open to motorists with access to parking on the cobblestone levee. Status: The southern portion of the project has been reopened for use while finishing touches are being applied. Construction is in full swing on the northern portion and on track to finish this year. Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation is more than 50.5% on the project, with 31.8% being minority-owned (MBE) and 18.7% being women-owned (WBE). In addition, workforce diversity goals for this project are surpassing the federal minority workforce goals for the City of St. Louis, which are 14.7 percent, with 15.8 percent of total project hours year-to-date completed by minority workers. Imagining the future: When complete, this new front door for the region will become a vibrant destination with programming and events. Residents and visitors alike can enjoy the river, be active outdoors, and access the riverboats, the national park, and Laclede’s Landing. The riverfront will be the back bone of the River Ring, a network of 600 miles of greenways that Great Rivers Greenway is building to connect St. Louis City, St. Louis County, and St. Charles County. North Gateway Lead Partners: National Park Service, Great Rivers Greenway, CityArchRiver Foundation Project Timeline: January 2015 – Summer 2016 Project Budget: $16.7 million Contractor: Kozeny-Wagner, Inc. Overview: The North Gateway includes the Lewis and Clark Explorers’ Garden for children, an elevated walkway with views of the Mississippi River, a natural amphitheater, and bicycle and pedestrian paths. The project is funded through both Proposition P revenue, overseen by Great Rivers Greenway, and private funding through the CityArchRiver Foundation. Status: Demolition of the parking garage started in February of 2015 and is complete. Crews monitored vibrations to protect the adjacent historic Eads Bridge and North Overlook. Now, workers are beginning infrastructure improvements to support 7.5 acres of new green space and events on the North Gateway. Throughout 2015, crews will landscape the park and create bike and pedestrian paths as well as a raised walkway from the park to the North Overlook. The North Gateway will be complete in the summer of 2016. Imagining the future: Visitors from Laclede’s Landing, downtown St. Louis, and the riverfront will no longer encounter a concrete wall or cavernous parking garage when approaching the Gateway Arch. The North Gateway will be an inviting connection to neighborhoods around the national park. Unique spaces and plantings will encourage visitors to enjoy and linger at the Arch grounds. Activities and events will keep the space active year round. Visitors will be able to easily walk through the arches of the historic Eads Bridge to enjoy Laclede’s Landing or stroll the Central Riverfront promenade. Children especially will enjoy the Lewis and Clark Explorers’ Garden, a dynamic landscape scaled for play with plantings recorded on the Lewis and Clark expedition. North Park and South Park Project Timeline: October 2014 – Summer 2016 Lead Partner: National Park Service, Great Rivers Greenway Project Budget: $48.7 million Contractors: McCarthy Building Companies, Inc., Castle Contracting Overview: The north and south grounds will be transformed to provide a better experience for all visitors through increased accessibility. The project creates sustainable ponds and landscaping. New accessible walkways will connect the Gateway Arch to the Mississippi riverfront, providing alternatives to the Grand Staircase. Soil and tree replacement across the entire site and landscaping improvements will create a more sustainable and beautiful park. Status: Project partners broke ground on North Park and South Park in September of 2015. Along Memorial Dr., areas that were once a busy street have been removed and will become bicycle and pedestrian paths. Construction crews are changing the grade of the east slopes facing the Mississippi River to support the new accessible Riverwalk Pathways on each side of the Grand Staircase. Throughout the grounds, an array of infrastructure improvements from sewers, soil replacement, and bioswales are creating a more sustainable Arch grounds. Nearly all of the Ash trees, which were threatened by the Emerald Ash Borer and other challenges, have been removed along the processional allées on each side of the Arch. 800 London Plane trees will replace the Ash trees and are currently being kept in New Florence, Missouri. The trees will be planted on the Arch grounds in spring 2016. Imagining the future: The national park will become a highly desirable destination for visitors coming to downtown St. Louis. Walkers, joggers, and cyclists will enjoy more than five miles of new accessible pathways. Visitors will enjoy new paths around the ponds for picnics, exploring, and viewing the reflection of the Arch and downtown. The CityArchRiver project is more than doubling the amount of trees on the Arch grounds. Visitors will find more shade and more diverse plantings throughout the grounds, including many native species. Riverwalk Pathways on the east slopes will finally make the riverfront accessible from the Arch for strollers and people using wheelchairs. Landscaping on North Park and South Park will be complete in 2016. Ranger Station Project Timeline: Lead Partner: Project Budget: Contractors: Summer 2015 – April 2016 National Park Service, CityArchRiver Foundation $3.3 million RB Construction Overview: To replace the former ranger station that was located in the Gateway Arch parking garage, a new one will be constructed adjacent to the maintenance building on the south end of the national park. The ranger station will hold offices and facilities for park rangers. Status: Construction on the ranger station will begin this summer and finish in April 2016. Old Courthouse Lead Partner: Project Timeline: Project Budget: National Park Service, CityArchRiver Foundation September 2014 – 2017 $11.9 million Overview: The Old Courthouse is being updated to enhance the visitor experience and accessibility. When visiting the redesigned galleries, visitors will be able to participate in reenactments of historic court cases, explore an exhibit dedicated to the story of Dred and Harriet Scott, and engage in interactive lessons on the purpose of courts, civil rights, and the art and architecture of the Old Courthouse. Status: Major construction on the Old Courthouse is expected to begin in 2017. While the museum under the Arch is closed for renovations, temporary exhibits and a visitor and ticketing center are open in the Old Courthouse. New ramps have made the first floor of the Old Courthouse accessible for all visitors. Imagining the future: To provide accessibility, the updated Old Courthouse will have an elevator to the 2nd floor and ramps on the exterior of the building. New exhibits will focus on the people behind some famous cases, such as Dred and Harriet Scott and Virginia Minor. When visitors walk into the Old Courthouse, the state-of-the-art galleries will be designed to frame the beautiful views of downtown, the Gateway Arch, and Mississippi River. Kiener Plaza Lead Partner: Great Rivers Greenway, CityArchRiver Foundation Project Timeline: Late 2015 – 2017 Project Cost: $24 million Overview: Kiener Plaza is a 1.9-acre gathering place west of the Old Courthouse that currently has few amenities. To connect the national park with new projects in the area including Ballpark Village, Mercantile Exchange, and Citygarden, Kiener Plaza is being completely redesigned to serve as a central hub of activities and a civic gathering place. Status: CityArchRiver project partners took public comment in fall of 2014. The new design of Kiener Plaza is being revised based on public input. Construction is scheduled to begin in late 2015. Imagining the future: The revitalized community gathering space and events venue will include several new features and more green space. For younger visitors, there will be an interactive fountain and play area to climb, swing, and explore. To accommodate concerts and movie nights, an event lawn with a sloped landscape will be built. Shade gardens, lush landscaping, a bicycle parking grove, and more will enhance the aesthetics of the plaza and create recreation opportunities. CityArchRiver Project Funding Total: $380 Million CityArchRiver is possible because of publicprivate partnerships among local, state and federal government entities, civic organizations, private businesses and citizens working to connect, invigorate, and expand the Gateway Arch grounds. Likewise, funding for the CityArchRiver plan is drawn from a combination of public and private sources. Project budgets shown on the preceding pages include design and construction but do not include other costs like site amenities, mitigation, and contingency. Private Funds Campaign: $221 million + 58% 24% 18% Sales Tax Bond Issue: $90 million Source: Safe and Accessible Arch and Public Parks Initiative (Proposition P). Regional sales tax revenue is allocated for improving public infrastructure on the Arch grounds and surrounding areas, plus funds to help support maintenance, improvements, and programs. Proposition P: Safe and Accessible Arch and Public Parks Initiative In April of 2013, the taxpayers of St. Louis City and St. Louis County voted to invest in Proposition P: Safe and Accessible Arch and Public Parks Initiative. Thank you to the citizens who exercised their vote and their voice and to all those who have invested in this project through the 3/16th cent sales tax over the last 18 months. Great Rivers Greenway serves as the proud steward of those funds and has been dedicated to delivering on the promise of returning those funds to the regional economy whenever possible. Project partners have collaborated to achieve the goal of the Prop. P investment, along with private investment; federal, state, and local grants; and partner contributions, staying in St. Louis. The renovation was divided into components to allow many opportunities for local firms to work on this historic project. Partners held pre-bid meetings and offered resources to guide interested firms through the complex task of bidding on work done by multiple partners through multiple types of procurement processes. Local contractors stepped up to put together thorough and competitive plans and delivered. It has paid off. Not only will this project provide a more accessible, sustainable, and vibrant park, its impact is felt throughout the region’s economy. To date, all the projects you’ve seen on the previous pages have been awarded to local contractors and are under or on budget. Source: Individuals, corporations, and foundations. The CityArchRiver Foundation has a fundraising goal of $250 million to cover overall design and construction costs and to seed a conservancy to help maintain the improvements made possible through the project. Federal, State, and Local Funds: $69 million Source: U.S. Department of Transportation, Missouri Department of Transportation, Department of the Interior, City of St. Louis, National Park Service, Bi-State Development Agency, and Great Rivers Greenway. Gifts to the CityArchRiver Foundation As of August 3, 2015 Realizing this vision for St. Louis calls upon each of us. CityArchRiver Foundation is leading a $250 million fundraising campaign to cover $221 million in design and construction costs and provide $29 million to assure improvements are sustained when the project is complete. The campaign has raised more than $237.7 million to date and turns to the community now to finish the task.
